Great Leadership, Glorious Korea
Today the Korean people are celebrating significantly the 70th founding anniversary of their country.

President Kim Il Sung, who acquired a precious experience of building a people’s government in the flames of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, laid solid foundations for building an independent and sovereign state after Korea’s liberation on August 15, 1945.

Based on these preparations, he proclaimed to the whole world the founding of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on September 9, Juche 37 (1948).

The founding of the DPRK signalled the birth of a new-type people’s government, the first of its kind in history, and an event of national significance which brought about a radical change in shaping the destiny of the Korean people and building a thriving country.

With the founding of the DPRK, Korea put an end to the misery of a weak colonial state and could proudly proceed into the international arena as a full-fledged sovereign state, and the Korean people could carve out their destiny independently and creatively with a powerful political weapon for the revolution and construction.

Over the past seven decades, the DPRK, under the guidance of the great leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il and the great Party, has adorned the history of great victory and changes by successfully carrying out many historic tasks that arose in the building of a powerful nation in the era of independence, in the teeth of harsh trials of the revolution.

With a great ambition to build a powerful country, an ideal society for the people admired by the world, on this land which had been eclipsed on the world map in the past, President Kim Il Sung wisely led the struggle to this end.

Under his leadership, the DPRK defended freedom and independence of its people and the gains of the revolution with credit in the fierce Fatherland Liberation War, carried out the socialist revolution in the shortest period of time in history and dynamically stepped up socialist construction. By so doing, it has emerged as a socialist country of Juche, independent in politics, self-supporting in the economy and self-reliant in national defence.

Kim Il Sung put forward the Koreans, once oppressed and exploited, as full-fledged masters of the state and society and exalted the country to a heroic Korea and Chollima Korea admired by the world; this constitutes his undying exploits that will go down for all ages along with the nation’s history.

The cause of building a powerful country of Juche pioneered by Kim Il Sung was brilliantly carried forward by Chairman Kim Jong Il.

In the latter half of the 1990s, he administered his original Songun politics in keeping with the rapidly-changing times and grave situation and the urgent requirements of the developing Korean revolution. In this way, he provided a strong guarantee for carrying through the cause of building a socialist power.

Thanks to the far-sighted wisdom and outstanding leadership of Kim Jong Il who identified the People’s Army as the main force of the revolution and firmly consolidated the country’s political and military foundations, the DPRK could dynamically carry on the cause of building a powerful country of Juche, remaining unperturbed in the face of worldwide political upheavals.

In the most trying periods of the Arduous March he unfolded a grandiose plan for building a socialist power and led to victory the grand all-people onward march to translate it. This holds a special page in the history of his leadership exploits to build a thriving nation.

With the most ennobling mind of patriotism, he was always on an endless journey of super-intense forced march for the prosperity of the country until the last moment of his great life. Thanks to his energetic leadership, the DPRK has fully demonstrated its unfathomable national strength and wrought eye-opening achievements and miracles one after another.

Under his leadership the Korean people could usher in the glorious era of building in a comprehensive manner a powerful socialist country with great national strength that is ever-prospering, raising their national dignity and might onto the highest level.

The DPRK is a powerful nation of Juche which exalts its might by dint of independent faith and will to which the great leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il held fast throughout their lives, a people-centred socialist state which thoroughly embodies their idea of “The people are my God”, and an invincible country that always emerges victorious in reliance upon the lasting foundations they laid for building a socialist power.

Today, it is greeting a fresh heyday of building a socialist power under the steersmanship of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, who is faithfully carrying forward the great leaders’ ideology and cause of building a thriving country.

He made sure that Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il were held in the highest esteem as the eternal leaders of Juche Korea, and put forward the strategic lines for the building of a socialist power.

At the Seventh Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea he set forth strategic goals and ways for accomplishing the cause of building a socialist power, and is now continuing his forced march of field guidance in order to lead the struggle to implement them in the vanguard.

Thanks to the politics of warm love for the people he administers by thoroughly applying the people-first principle in all activities of the Party and the State, the people’s beautiful dreams and ideals are being translated into reality one after another.

It is the realities of the DPRK that changes its appearance by morning and evening, achieving prosperity on the strength of self-reliance and self-development and powerfully demonstrating its might as a politico-ideological power based on single-hearted unity, an invincible military power, and the one and only youth power in the world.

Only victory and glory are in store for the DPRK which advances under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, holding the great leaders in the highest esteem forever.
